VIDEO: Tips to Keep Your Boat Clean

 

Keeping your boat clean is essential for maintaining its longevity and ensuring a comfortable boating experience. In this video, Greg from Seattle Boat Company shares some tips on how to keep your boat clean.

Tip 1: Use the correct materials

When cleaning your boat, always make sure you're using the correct material in the correct place. We recommend using interior, exterior and glass cleaner only on the spots that the cleaner suggests. For example, an interior cleaner would be just for the seats while an extiroer cleaner is more for the fiberglass. Always use a microfiber towel when wiping down anything to avoid leaving scratches on the seats.

Tip 2: Lift up cushions

Dirt tends to collect under cushions, so it's important to lift them up and get behind them when cleaning your boat. To really get all of the dirt and grim collected under there, fully remove the cushions if possible to get any and all edges clean.

Tip 3: Let wet items air out

When putting away your boat for the day, it's recommended that you pull out any wet life jackets and leave the cushions open. This will prevent mold and mildew from forming in your boat while you are not using it.

Tip 4: Cover your boat

Always secure a cover to your boat when you're done cleaning it. This will help keep it nice and protect it from outside elements.

By following these simple tips outlined by Greg from Seattle Boat Company, you can ensure that your boat stays clean and comfortable for all of your future boating adventures!
